MYO play dough

☁

(dear CV readers all over the world,

Today I chose ' to do ' instead of digging in my collections ' to photograph ', believe me, I've got a few. Because I'm a little bit too tired due on-going building work, I need to focus on the simple things in life for a little while, the little things that make one happy.

So drawing, family life and tomorrow back in the Studio to screen print. Hooray!

Oh, and maybe have a few cupcakes! )

I know a lot of mother already posted this fun activity.

But I simply couldn't resist...

So much fun and so incredibly easy.

You will need:

1 cup of plain white flour

½ cup of salt

2 teaspoons of tartaric acid baking powder / wijnsteenzuur bakpoeder

(would that be cream of tartar?)

1 cup of water

1 tablespoon of oil + few drops of essential oil

food coloring (beet root water/ turmeric etc. or bought ones)

Put in saucepan, stir to get the lumps out.

Keep stirring!

Acracadabra!

It's like magic.

There is your dough.

Let it cool and knead for a couple of minutes before storing in an airtight container in your fridge.

Today our Yellow smells like Honey/camomile.

Our Orange like Lavender

and our Red like fire (the most fantastic smell from Boutriba for your fire child!)

My ideas are sowed, sprouted, nursed and raised with greatest care. I try to find inspiration from my direct surroundings, my heart and soul. Please do not use any Photographs and Designs without my permission. Thank you
